In preparation for an Instrument Flight Test it is important to brush-up your knowledge on the following information.
1. Minimum weather requirements for take-off.
2. Allowed reductions on above minimas for your specific departure aerodrome.
3. When a take-off alternate is required.
4. Required minimum weather at the take-off alternate.
5. Required minimum weather at the destination alternate.
6. ICAO radio failure procedures.
7. South African radio failure procedures.
8. Sector entry procedures for holding at a radio beacon.
9. Speeds for holding in South Africa
10. Aircraft classifications in category A to D.
11. Approach speed limitations in Terminal areas.
12. Procedure Turn Approach limitations and procedures.
13. State minima for precision approaches.
14. State minima for non-precision approaches.
15. State minima for circling approaches.
16. Minimum aircraft and airfield facilities required to do an instrument approach.
17. The significance of the Outer Marker for an ILS approach.
18. ICAO altimeter setting procedures.
19. Definition of DA, MDA and VDP.
20. Visual requirements to land off a non-precision approach.
21. Visual requirements to land off a CAT 1 ILS.
22. Visual requirements to execute a circling approach.
23. ICAO procedures for a missed approach during a circling approach.
24. South African procedures for a missed approach during a circling approach.
25. What does the term “LVP” mean.
26. When will “LVP’s“ be in force.
27. What are the South African rules with regards to the Approach Ban.
28. Fuel planning requirements for a flight conducted on an IF flight plan in RSA.
29. Difference between Radar Identified, Radar Control and Radar Vectors.
30. Minimum number of IF approaches required to keep an IF rating valid.
31. Is the general speed restriction of 250 kts at 40 nm into JNB still in force.
32. What is an EAT.
33. What is an OCT.
34. May a Radio Altimeter be used to determine the DA for a CAT I ILS.
35. May a Radio Altimeter be used to determine the MDA for a non-precision approach.
36. Explain the difference between V1, Vr and V2.
37. Explain the term accelerate-stop distance.
38. Explain the term accelerate-go distance.
39. Explain the term“balanced field”
40. Which factors affect density altitude and how does it affect take-off performance.
hi, soon im going to test for my CPL this was useful. At least i know what not to forget. thanks..
ReplyDeleteHello Samriddha, first of all thanks a lot for your response and interest in this website. Im glad that you find posts of this website very useful. When I get comments on my post from users it encourages me even more to present you other useful study materials and the same is our vision and motto.
DeleteI hope you do very well in your CPL flight test and remember the points I mentioned in the above post. Thank you.
